SWMF simulation of field-aligned currents for a varying northward and duskward IMF with nonzero dipole tilt
This study concentrates on the FACs distribution for the varying northward and duskward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions when the dipole tilt is nonzero. A global MHD simulation (the Space Weather Modeling Framework, SWMF) has been used to perform this study. Hemispheric asymmetry...
